In this tutorial I’ll show you how to upgrade PHP 5.6.xx which is by default installed by Vesta CP during installation to PHP 7.2.xx latest, I’ve tested on many server before writing this tutorial and its just working fine without any issue hence it is safe to upgrade to PHP 7.2, part of this tutorial is copied from remi repository.

Why upgrade to php 7.2 – Because it will give you security & performance boost + KICK, since WordPress will load much faster and uses less resources.
